The lithium-ion battery has been utilized in various fields including energy storage system, portable electronic devices and electric vehicles due to their high energy and power densities, low self-discharge, and long cycle-life performances. However, despite of various research on electrode materials, there is a lack of research on developing of binder to replace conventional polymer-based binding materials. In this work, petroleum pitch (MP-50)/polymer (polyurethane, PU) composite binder for lithium-ion battery has fabricated not only to use as a binding material, but also to re-place conventional polymer-based binder. The MP-50/PU composite binder has also prepared to various ratios between petroleum pitch and polymer to optimize the physical and electro-chemical performance of the lithium-ion battery based on the MP-50/PU composite binder. The physical and electrochemical performances of the MP-50/PU composite binder-based lithium-ion battery were evaluated using a universal testing machine (UTM), charge/discharge test. As a result, lithium-ion battery based on the MP-50/PU composite (5:5, mass ratio) binder showed optimized performances with 1.53 gf mm− 1 of adhesion strength, 341 mAh g− 1 of specific discharge capacity and 99.5% of ICE value.
The lithium ion battery has applied to various fields of energy storage systems such as electric vehicle and potable electronic devices in terms of high energy density and long-life cycle. Despite of various research on the electrode and electrolyte materials, there is a lack of research for investigating of the binding materials to replace polymer based binder. In this study, we have investigated petroleum pitch/polymer composite with various ratios between petroleum pitch and polymer in order to optimize the electrochemical and physical performance of the lithium-ion battery based on petroleum pitch/polymer composite binder. The electrochemical and physical performances of the petroleum pitch/polymer composite binder based lithium-ion battery were evaluated by using a charge/discharge test, cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and universal testing machine (UTM). As a result, the petroleum pitch(MP-50)/polymer(PVDF) composite (5:5 wt % ratio) binder based lithium-ion battery showed 1.29 gf mm-1 of adhesion strength with 144 mAh g-1 of specific dis-charge capacity and 93.1 % of initial coulombic efficiency(ICE) value.
본 연구에서는 “이온젤” 이라고 불리는 고분자 기반의 PVA(polyvinyl alcohol)-H₃PO₄의 고체 전해질에 이온성 액체 BMIMBF4 (1-buthyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate)를 첨가하여 제조한 전고체 전해질과 환원된 그래핀 옥사이드/전도성 고분자 복합재료 기반의 전극 재료를 이용하여 유연성을 갖는 슈퍼커패시터를 제작 하였으며, 유연성에 따른 전기화학적 특성을 분석하여 보았다. 환원된 그래 핀 옥사이드/전도성 고분자 복합재료와 전고체 전해질 기반의 유연성 슈퍼커패시터의 전기화학적 특성을 유연성에 따라서 측정하기 위해서 프레스로 0.01 kg/cm²의 일정한 압력으로 최대 100회 까지 굽힘 시험 (bending test)을 진행 하였으며, 0~100 회의 굽힘 시험 이후에 순환 전압전류법(CV), 전기화학적 임피던스 분광법(EIS) 및 전정류 충·방전법(GCD)을 통하여 비교 및 분석하여 보았다. 그 결과로, 유연성 슈퍼커 패시터의 초기 전기용량은 43.9 F/g으로 확인 할 수 있었고, 이 값은 50회, 100회의 굽힘 시험 후에 각각 42.0F/g, 40.1F/g로 감소하는 현상을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과로 미루어 보아 물리적인 응력이 슈퍼 커패시터의 전기화학적 특성 감소에 영향을 주는 것으로 사료되며 또한, 굽힘 횟수에 따른 슈퍼커패시터의 전기화학적 특성 감소 원인을 확인하기 위해서 굽힘 시험 전과 후의 전극표면을 전자주사 현미경으로 관찰 하여 보았다.
In this paper deals with strength of glass fiber reinforced plastics produced by shouting machine was investigated by universal testing instrument. We can obtain following results by performing the strength evaluation of polymer composite material according as varied environment temperature. The effect of environmental temperature on Strength properties was more sensitive in the weld specimen than parent. When changed environmental temperature, variation of strength in the parent was much bigger than it of weld specimen, that is, matrix in the parent, orientation in the specimen ware more sensitive to environmental strength. Tensile strength of polycarbonate matrix was similar regardless of mold temperature.
